Ways to make your digital streaming sound better

Having tried a lot of different methods including fiber optic , sonically Conventional 

Quality ethernet cable sounds more realistic , first at your modem router combo -get rid of the $5 wall wart it is nothing but added noise . Little green computer sells a decent 8 amp 12 v type for $300, that was much better , better still was the                 Linear Tube Audio LPS , on your router it states the voltage and most are around 4 amp. These LPS  go to 8 amp for $700 on Audiogon .  Then you need a respectable Ethernet switch,the best one I have found has a LPS built in as well as a OCxo clock -LHY -SW8 , you need 2 Ethernet cables ,your best one goes to your Streamer ,that’s where it makes the biggest improvement . 
with the latest Eversolo DMP -A8; really made a nice improvement just by doing these few things  many Audiophiles overlook .your streamer will thank you as well as your ears . Excellent streamer dac -preamp for under $2k .Many Excellent reviews . a mini review to follow

How do I use fibre for my home theatre when I have an Apple TV box?

I use an AV processor and have all the fibre gear but the Apple TV box don't allow optical.

My streamer/dac has optical but I can't split the HDMI signal so the audio signal can pass through the streamer dac, or maybe somehow it can be done.

Maybe optical is not very good for home theatre because of the band with limitations.

Why does home theatre sound sucks so bad? The wife cries constantly screaming why is my home theatre sound not very good and then I wonder why is my wife here when I'm not even married
